I wholeheartedly support that. Gentoo has switched to Python 3.7 by default already, and it sucks that the only version of PyPy3 is behind that. That said, have you considered going straight to 3.8? In my experience, the switch from 3.7 to 3.8 was far less painful than from 3.6 to 3.7, so it might be less work to skip 3.7 entirely.
We are on the cusp of releasing 3.7, I don't want to delay any more. Hopefully we will have some bandwidth to push forward soon. It is encouraging to hear that the transition may be easier than previous ones. Matti
